From the Burggarten you can look over the Taubertal in three directions. In the north the view of Detwang, the Fuchsmühle and the Topplerschlösschen, to the south of the double bridge and the Spitalviertel, the so-called "Kappenzipfel" and to the west of the Castel Sant'Angelo and the former ski jump
